ADJUSTING THE CUTTING HEIGHT

Each of the independent mower decks has its own cutting height
adjustment. Cutting height is set via an easy to use jack screw system
on each corner of the deck. A combination 1 ½" wrench / 15/16" socket
tool is proved with the machine to perform these adjustments.
NOTE: For optimal cutting results, the mower should be set to remove
not more than 1/3 of the total grass height. This will result in the
best cutting performance while minimizing stress to the grass.
To make a height adjustment, follow these steps:
1) Lower the decks to mowing position.
2) Loosen the (2) 15/16" adjustment locking nuts on the side
channel
3) Loosen the (2) 1 ½" jam nuts
4) Turn the 15/16" nut on top of each adjusting screw to desired
height displayed on the height indicator plate.
reading is the same on both ends of the side channel.
5) Tighten jam nuts
6) Tighten the adjustment locking nuts
7) Repeat steps 1-6 for the end of each deck. (10 total)
